Vivid memory of baseball as a little kid.<BR/><BR/>So easy to find the truth on baseball-reference.com: it was 1979, but Burelson was indeed the last batter of the game with one on, and struck out. AL lost 7-6.<BR/><BR/>I was foolish to hope for an HR from Burleson.<BR/><BR/>I think that may have been the last ASG I got excited about.
